visual studio code touch command not recognized

Visual Studio Code is not recognizing the touch index.html command . It used to work. Now I get this error:

PS C:Userskimim_000mynewprofile> touch index.html
touch : The term ‘touch’ is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the
spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.

    I had the same issue as well. I used "code" in place of "touch" to create my file.

    Are you using PowerShell?

    I think this answer explains it well if you are.

    Basically, touch isn’t a PowerShell or Windows command. The command if this is the issue is New-Item or Get-Item
